Hello,

I have a MS Access XP database on a Windows 2000 server.

When add a new record to the database, we get the error 3218, this happens when 4 users are in the database.

Does anyone know how to fix it.

Thanks,
Scott Rusoff

Try splitting your database into a backend and frontend and place a copy of the frontend on each user's PC.
